MIDNIGHT MOON

outfit details: kimono - lulu*s.com // shirt - gift from a friend // leggings c/o sheinside // moon breastplate necklace - roots and feathers // moon phase necklace - aurora shadow // moon shield ring - star native // moon cut out geometric ring - twisted whimsy

Today's threads post is my version of a slightly more everyday wearable version of my latest Bohemian Collective lookbook, Moon Goddess. I used many of the same elements and mixed it up just a bit. Also note, the red lips! I hardly wear red or darker shades of lipstick anymore. Funny b/c its practically all I wore when I was in my teens. It had been so long since I had bought a red lipstick that I am a bit out of my game, and picked a shade that is just a bit too red. I need to go back and find one that is a few shades darker. Oh, and please excuse the kitty hair all up on my black clothes... its inevitable around these parts.

In case you didn't see I posted a new giveaway yesterday, and there are only 2 more days to enter, its a short one! It is for Wellness by Design's Deeply Rooted Winter Cleanse that starts in just a few days! Its going to be a good one!

outfit details: hat - lulu*s.com // hatband + necklace - roots and feathers // sweater - sheinside // shirt - forever21 // jeans - ae // boots - chicwish // rings - star native + twisted whimsy + laurel hill

I totally forgot when I posted this post, that I had actually photographed this outfit for real! So you get a double dose of this one... I'm so in love with the color of this hat. So sad its sold out, but Lulu*s always gets new rad hats in often, so keep checking back!

The weather has been so amazingly gorgeous outside here in Texas! All I want to do is go play outside, but Ive been stuck inside working for days... I think tonite I'm going to insist we take a walk break! I don't want to miss this season change. Before you know it, it will be blistering hot here. And of course, we will still probably have some freezes before its all over. We like our weather to be crazy and unpredictable here.

I'm off to get as much done as I can so I can go play outside!!! xo

outfit details: sweater + shirt - f21 // jeans - ae // boots - blowfish shoes // necklace + bracelet - roots and feathers

Admittedly I wear these jeans about 3 (or more) times a week, as you are probably catching onto now with the amount they keep showing up here. Might be time for me to um... wash them. Ha ha. These transition days going from winter to the budding of spring showing up here and there, I have been finding myself dressing a bit more simple. Jeans, tee & sweater with a few accessories. I'm starting to get really excited about spring days laying on a blanket outside, with a glass of cold tea and my babies (furry ones) playing in the yard next to me. I can't wait.

This week has surprisingly been so full and gone in so many different directions. In case you have missed anything, here is a recap: I posted a new amazing giveaway with Moondaughter for her Stone Medicine ecourse where she teaches about the power of stones. I re-designed The Bohemian Collective blog, and tomorrow I will be releasing a brand new lookbook. I created a new twitter account just for The Bohemian Collective, come follow us! I shared Aquarius Nation's insightful energy reading for this Full Moon in Cancer happening tomorrow.

Behind the scenes, Ive been working on several wholesale orders, custom orders, client design work & Ive gotten really good at just allowing my house to be very messy (which might be driving James slightly crazy). I have fallen a bit behind with my Roots & Feathers Texas lookbook updates, but Ill be back with a new one soon. I am so grateful to be full of things to keep me busy, so I just have to remind myself that it is okay to not get it all done all the time.

I'd love to know from those of you who juggle many things at once, what keeps you focused and organized?

THREADS // SHOPPING DATE

January 9, 2014 Laura Mazurek

James has been off work this week. He took some time off he had stored up from work for his birthday. Its been really nice, waking up with him home, having fires in the morning, drinking coffee together... The other day we went on a shopping date together. We had a few gift cards from the holidays so we went to town just to shop, which is something that rarely ever happens! Usually its just for groceries. It ended up being the coldest day weve had so far, but it was so nice to get out of the house. I actually ended up getting grumpy after the first store (best buy)... that place does something to me. The lights or something, I always leave grumpy. Ha ha. (can you say pms??) Or maybe it really is just that place. Probably all of the electrical gadgets and bright lights turned on all at once, complete overload and it makes my body start malfuntioning... (just a fun little tidbit you didn't know about me)...

SO, in other news, I am so excited b/c I am redoing The Bohemian Collective blog (again)! It will be up in a few days, along with a brand new lookbook that has been in the works. There will be a few new regular contributing editors too, so there will actually be blog updates a few times a week from now on! So stoked! Ive been kind of sad about that blog for about a year now b/c I have not been able to give it the love and attention it deserves by myself, so this is going to be such a huge thing for me!

Today we have our first appointment with our realtor about selling my parents house. I can do this... I can do this... I can do this...
